What to expect

Explore the world's most remarkable art pieces at the Art Institute of Chicago with your personal self-guided audio tour. Opened in 1879 and housed in a magnificent Beaux-Arts building, this school and museum for the fine arts hosts masterpieces by famous artists like Vincent Van Gogh, Edward Hopper, Pablo Picasso, and many others.

The tour starts on the first floor with the exploration of the art produced by different cultures — China, Japan, India, and Africa and lets you see a few pieces dating back even to the Neolithic period. You will also see the artworks of Ancient Rome and Greece, considered a cornerstone of Western civilization.

On the second floor, you will be introduced to Modern American Art and European Decorative Arts and invited to the greatest collection of Impressionist artwork in the world while being guided through must-sees paintings.

The tour ends on the third floor with a significant exhibition of Modern Art and the most renowned objects to have a look at. Don't miss the outdoor Bluhm Family Terrace to enjoy the stunning Chicago skyline while appreciating and living through your new art experience.
